BantheGOP playing mole on CC?
Stranger things have happpened. Has Gaytor expressed concern about the Pali Ships? "JUST LIKE THE LIBERTY!!!!"
It's far harder, I believe, for people to consistently fake conservative beliefs than it is to fake progressive beliefs. Human nature being what it is, conservatives/libertarians tend to be more rooted in reality, and as such cannot really be "faked" that easily. On the other hand, liberal poppycock, based in fantasyland, is easier to fake.
To put this in stark perspective: A conservative thinks a liberal is WRONG, and can prove it by showing the facts. A liberal, on the other hand, not only thinks a conservative is wrong, but is EVIL. Since they can not prove, by and large, that conservatives are wrong on the facts, they have to try to effect their position by creating a persona of evil that detracts from the rational argument.
So it's very difficult to fake being a conservative, since to BE a conservative, one must have a sound, rational basis behind one's position. Faking to be a liberal, though, is much easier, since one doesn't have to base their arguments in reality; just in perception.
In short, if CC wants to get a mole, by all means they are more than welcome to come.
I mean BanTheGOP over at the DUmp.
If he's a mole, he has hundreds of posts and actually has a blog. If I tried to go on the site and post a tenth of what he did, or tried to get a blog, I'd get nailed six ways to Sunday. So he's probably a supported protagonist (or antagonist from our point of view).
